As our label continues to grow, one of the greatest honors is featuring new music from artists that we love and respect. So it’s with exceptional pleasure that we present to you, fresh new music from contemporary disco shakers Midnight Magic! Truly a band and not just some producers trying their hand at disco, Midnight Magic broke out with their Beam Me Up single a few years back and their follow up Drop Me a Line was one of our biggest DJ bombs for almost a year. Now, they bring their Magic to Soul Clap Records with a 5 track EP of eclectic disco bliss.

The lead single is called Night Flight and it will have you flying all the way into the future. For the remixes we’ve enlisted our Crew Love fam to bring the jam into our land. PillowTalk take off at laid back pace for a funky night in their signature  style. Meanwhile, No Regular Play take a flight to a housier place of deepness for those late night dance floors. Please enjoy the Magic with us!

Lyrics:

Baby, I want to take you to a special place 
Where the sun is always shinning on your face 
So pack up all your things lets fly 
Just like the first time 

Don't you want to get away sometimes ? 
Don't you want to leave it all behind ? 
Well, it's alright it's alright 
I'll take you with me 

Do you really want to feel alive ? 
I'll take you to a place where you can unwind 
Well, It's alright it's alright 

Oohh ohh ohh ! Waaoohh waaoohh ! 
Going on a Holiday! 

It's ok now, that you're safe in my open arms 
'cause I won't ever do you no harm 
But now it's time for us to escape 
No need to be afraid 

Don't you want to get away sometimes ? 
Don't you want to leave it all behind ? 
Well, it's alright it's alright 
I'll take you with me 

Do you really want to feel alive ? 
I'll take you to a place where you can unwind 
Well, It's alright it's alright 

Oohh ohh ohh ! Waaoohh waaoohh !
Going on a Holiday!

*Now you can go back and replay the song... and go on a holiday ;)

Artist: Manuel Tur
Title:  Remixed Sampler
Release Date: 16th February (Vinyl) 23rd February (Digital) 2015
Format: Vinyl/Digital
Cat No: FR199/FRD199

Massive remix package alert!!
Whilst randomly flicking through his Itunes library Manuel Tur hit upon a
selection of remixes that have been made of his music over the years and
realized that, as well as many of them having gone criminally under the
radar, many are absolutely solid gold and all of them deserve to be put
together on one LP to showcase these beauties.  The artists involved reads
like a who’s who of underground house and techno with vintage names like
Pepe Bradock, Ian Pooley and Isolée rubbing shoulders with young upstarts
like Ugly Drums and Damiano von Erckert.  For those who are already
familiar with these remixes we wanted to make sure you had some brand new
and exclusive music to get your teeth into so added three brilliant
remixes of tracks from Manuel’s latest LP Es Cub to the package which is
exactly what you have here on this sampler release.
All three names need little by way of introduction, being Poker Flat
honcho Steve Bug, Feel and One Track founder John Daly and Innervisions
and Pets regular Aera.  All three deliver their own unique take with their
trademark quality and attention to the dancefloor all present and correct.
Steve Bug’s Remix of Ara Anam kicks off the release in classic Bug style
with clipped beats, simple stabs and that warmth of production that makes
everything he does work so nicely in the club.  John Daly is up next
ditching his more cosmic, spaced out deep house sound for a straight up
dub techno onslaught.  Not your usual Freerange fare of course but when
the music is this good who cares?  Play loud in a smokey warehouse or not
at all!  Finally, Aera gives us his spin on Agrafena, a twisted and edgy
track with crazy synths and stripped back beats taking us on a turbulent
magic carpet ride into the future. Or something like that.

Buy from 16th Feb

As premiered on Noisey: noisey.vice.com/blog/karin-park-hurricane-premiere

Grammy winner Karin Park’s latest release sees her collaborating with ‘Pandora Drive’, an outfit comprised of renowned photographer and filmmaker Thomas Knights (who achieved recent stratospheric success as the creator of the ‘Red Hot’ project appearing on The One Show and global news channels) and DJ and producer Nick Sheldon Hurricane’ , includes remixes from heavyweights Booka Shade, Maya Jane Coles and Barber.

Park is an artist and singer famed for her innate ability to captivate crowds with her live sets and leave dance floors across the globe yearning for more. This new offering is plucked from her forthcoming album ‘Apocalypse Pop’, due for release on 2nd March 2015, which will mark another chapter in her career of sonic experimentalism.

Park says, "I’ve been following Pandora Drive at very close range pretty much since it was born and I’m very excited to see it grow. Thomas is such a talented musician, photographer and director and when he teamed up with Nick Sheldon I was expecting nothing less than gold. Looks like I was right.”

Initially, the video illustrates a love story; however, ‘Hurricane’, featuring vocals from both Karin and Thomas and directed by Knights himself, is a mesmerizing depiction of a 21st century life and each individual’s constant desire for more, an underlying sense of longing throughout the hypnotic synths and evocative melody. ‘Hurricane is about never feeling satisfied,’ Knights says. ‘It’s about not getting swept up – you have to keep on going.’   
The meeting of dark decadent subject matter with electronica, hypnotic top lines from both and Knights’ skill with visuals makes for an exhilarating and dangerously alluring combination; listeners are tempted to take a bite out of the apple and enter the ‘fucked up alternative world’ they’ve created.

The release comes complete with remixes from Maya Jane Coles, Booka Shade and newcomer Barber. Maya Jane Coles provides a tantalizing interpretation, adding an extra thread of intrigue that is unmistakably hers to the track’s multi-woven fabric. German producers Booka Shade break the track down only to reconstruct it with an agility that can only be achieved after years of pioneering productions. Newcomer Barber delivers a toughened up re-work worthy of a place in the darkest clubs on the most crowded dance floors.

DJ & producer David Krasemann, better known as Dave DK has been making waves in the electronic music scene for a couple of years now. Since the early 90's he was fascinated by the upcoming techno movement, which eventually led to his own active initiation. 1995 was the starting point for the then 17 year old.

Together with a longtime friend, Dave produced his first tracks and was involved in the organization of underground techno and house partys, constantly trying to spread and push new electronic music.

Searching for new electronic sounds every day and having honed his skills as a producer in his chosen home Berlin, Dave released his first record on Müller Records in 1998. His DJ activities had been highly pushed since that time. In 1999 he became a resident DJ at Tresor/Globus club in Berlin, later on also at the legendary Panorama Bar. Beside his remix productions for Beroshima and Skiebäck he released records on raum...musik., Decore, Lifetime Music and Cadeaux.

As Dave is an open minded person who resents musical limits, he doesn’t want to be reduced to one style. His sound simply is the result of different styles that have influenced him throughout the years. "I have a passion for the wide range between house and techno as well as pop music and dancefloor stuff of the early 90's", says Dave.

Though he’s elegantly juggling a variety of electronic music to create his own style, in his tracks he often combines tragic melodies with kickin’ grooves that transform your body into a twisting stampede of electricity, with trademark swing and warm funk.

The year 2000 can be marked as the first highlight in his career: his debut album "Sensory Overload“had been released on Müller Records and there were musical excursions on Cologne’s Television label as well as on the Barcelona based Regular label. In 2005 Dave started to record for Moodmusic and also Playhouse (a collaboration with Holger “Smash TV” Zilske) which brings him even closer to his idea of electronic house tunes.

In November 2007 he gave birth to his second album „Lights and Colours“ on Moodmusic. Late 2010 saw the release of Dave’s first Mix CD on Moodmusic called RETAKE ONE. In 2013 Dave returns to Cologne releasing his first 12“ on Kompakt. In 2014 he got signed by DJ Koze for Pampa Records.

For Dave DK, music is a model of living in which he’s able to enhance his skills in order to realise his vision of modern electronic club and home entertainment – expect more fantastic music in the very near future.

Telefon Tel Aviv - The Birds (Kassey Voorn & Turner remix) Transitions Sample

For decades people have asked: what is house music? Whether it is DJ Pierre, Todd Terry, LFO or Terre Thaemlitz they all present the most disparate answers. With their newest EP on Freude Am Tanzen Taron-Trekka delivers four more and herewith demonstrate Larry Heard and Robert Owens as Fingers Inc. at the end are perhaps the most appropriate design from ol' Uncle Jack. Of course, there is the still valid, House is a Feeling. A feeling that in the best case is a warm pulsating shower that falls evenly over your head, heart and legs.

Seit Jahrzehnten fragt man sich: What is house music? Ob nun DJ Pierre, Todd Terry, LFO oder Terre Thaemlitz, sie alle gaben darauf die unterschiedlichsten Antworten. Mit ihrer neuesten EP auf Freude Am Tanzen liefern Taron-Trekka nun vier weitere und beweisen damit, dass Larry Heard und Robert Owens als Fingers Inc. am Ende vielleicht noch immer die treffendste Auslegung vom alten Onkel Jack parat hatten. Denn noch immer gilt: House is a Feeling. Ein Gefühl nämlich, das einem im besten Falle als warm pulsierender Schauer gleichermaßen in Kopf, Herz und Beine fährt.

Benn Finn - It's True (Ron Flatter Remix)

There will always be a bass drum making people dance, but it will rarely sound the same. Techno and House are in continuous flux. There will always be people celebrating. And each year new kids join the scene, hungry for pleasure, for beauty, for ecstasy – for life. Over the last few years, Ibiza has established itself as one of the centres of advanced electronic music. A key figure in Ibiza's electronic awakening is Sven Väth. He and the Mediterranean island have come a long way. As a youth, he experienced the flamboyant nightlife on the island, having been introduced to dimensions of pleasure that were not imaginable in his hometown of Frankfurt. In 1999, Väth decided to return some of the energy and inspiration he had received from the rocky island with the unique atmosphere. Focusing on quality music, Väth established a new type of party experience by summoning a tribe of passionate musicians and activists, and in 2012, Cocoon's Ibiza adventure was created for the 13th time. Being the master of ceremony, Väth invites a unique mix of long-time companions and upcoming talent. As a DJ, he is scanning through the unmanageable amount of new music with somnambulistic security, having excavated aural treasures and shaping the ideal environment to release their full potential. 

The 13th Season opens with Thomas Hoffding's auspicious voice, subtly arranged by Terranova and reworked by Adam Port. Young producer wAFF's grooves are more stable and demanding, the erotic female vocal luring us even deeper into the Cocoon, establishing the emotional density of classic New York House. Nobody manages to unleash the forces of the bass so wholeheartedly like Berlin's WK7, pushing the set into a more technoid direction. The turmoil that will take place on the dancefloor is anticipated by Margot's meandering acid track. The Tuff City Kids are pushing even further with striking, demanding chords. Octave One's unique, soulful grooves highlight the unrestrained force of the synthesizers. Ben Sims' slick groove is subduing the excitement, with enigmatic bleeps hovering over the dancefloor like an acoustic sculpture. Sam Paganini is moving even further in this direction, startling the dancers with sound from another galaxy. The obvious thing to do is now to push the crowd over the edge with a huge breakdown. But this is not what Väth does. By merging tracks from Sawlin, P.A.S. and Exercise One, he composes a powerful sequence: highly climactic and absolutely collected at the same time, it reaches beyond the vocabulary of peak time Techno. Dissolving into a tribal groove by Silent Servant and poetic sounds of Ray Kajioka, the first set is coming to its end. 

The second CD starts off at an entirely different note. A sweet House sound is established by Makam. It's innocent, yet full of suggestion. The crowd is captured by the allure and grace of Dixon's edit of Romanthony's classical anthem, “The Wanderer”, and with &ME's vexing alien sounds, the ideal counterpoint is created. Julien Bracht is challenging the dancers with broken beats and seducing them with a longing vocal at the same time. The simplicity of Alejandro Mosso's mesmerizing melody finally disarms the crowd. Lawrence's intangible electronic sounds are pouring down on the dancers like rain in the midst of summer. Romanian Cocoon Hero Rhadoo is applying the brakes to the dancefloor's movement and controversially creates an irresistible motion. Unlike very few artists, Frankfurt's Roman Flügel manages to challenge the language of dance music. He merges the history and the future of House music in the most humorous way possible. Moving away from that playful sound, British electronic music maverick Four Tet strikes a rather demanding note. The heavy, bassy chords of Four Tet's turn into Uner's multi-layered diaphanous House sound, bursting with sun and light. Gathaspar is unifying the diverging energies with a pervasive soundscape. And Soy Mustafa and John Tejada have the final word: the dancefloor is taken away by their otherworldly serenity. In the end, the music is only a part of the adventure. Sven Väth creates a unique relationship with his crowd, leading us through experience like no one else.
